He woke up the next day is the correct answer

Be careful- in English "wake" is also the word for the Christian custom of exhibiting a dead body before burial!!! "We waked him last Wednesday" would refer to the event in which family and friends gather in a private home or more likely a "funeral parlor" to pay their last respects to a corpse!

Read some Irish literature for more details! :-)

Wake is also what is left behind a boat.
